Physical appearances are undertheorized in psychoanalysis. This paper discusses the multifaceted significance of appearances and the use of normative unconscious processes to think about appearances. The paper examines, moreover, how these dynamics intersect and interact with, inter alia, race, class, gender, and sexuality, and implicate politics, personal and otherwise. As psychoanalysis takes a Second Relational Turn, clinicians should consider the effects of appearances and acknowledge their impact, just as they acknowledge and explore the effects of factors such as race, class, sex, and gender; if clinicians do not explore patients’ appearances, they risk not recognizing them fully. The paper further discusses the connection between the psychic and the social in a clinical case, considering how a patient’s appearance informs her internal and external relational patterns, including how her “beauty” contributes to failures of recognition; affects her position within and among social hierarchies; and influences the transference and countertransference matrix of the therapeutic dyad.

Psychoanalytic writing today is aimed almost entirely at psychoanalysts, not the general public. There are exceptions, though Freud and Beyond (Mitchell and Black, 1995), any number of books by Adam Phillips on topics ranging from kindness (2009) to monogamy (1996), to the nature of change (2021), and, recently, The Relational Revolution in Psychoanalysis and Psychotherapy (Kuchuck, 2021). All of these succeed in being engaging and explanatory about psychoanalysis for “lay” readers while retaining intellectual weight and complexity suitable for professional readers. But the question still shows up often enough on the professional listservs: “What is a good book to recommend to someone who wants to understand how psychotherapy works?” With Emotional Inheritance, Dr. Galit Atlas has written a collection of clinical stories that bring to life the complexity, depth, and beauty of psychoanalytic work. She writes (and speaks in the audiobook version) in a voice that conveys what is so often uncannily poignant about therapeutic work, specifically in work with intergenerational trauma. In each of the clinical stories she tells, Atlas conveys how, as therapists and patients, we move from being strangers to becoming (asymmetrical, boundaried) intimates (Aron, 1996), how we start in obscurity and emerge into illumination, how we and our patients learn to bear the unbearable, know the unknowable, and ultimately go on living more wholly, more fully. She achieves this in a book specifically intended for a general readership, yet this is a book that can and should be a guide and an inspiration for mental health professionals at every level of experience. Atlas’s ability to lift clinical stories out of the clinic and into the realm of literary art can be observed in her professional writing (Atlas, 2015; Atlas and
今天的精神分析写作几乎完全针对精神分析学家，而不是普通大众。当然也有例外，比如《弗洛伊德与超越》(Mitchell and Black, 1995)、亚当·菲利普斯(Adam Phillips)写的很多书，主题从善良(2009)到一夫一妻制(1996)，再到变化的本质(2021)，以及最近的《精神分析和心理治疗中的关系革命》(Kuchuck, 2021)。所有这些都成功地吸引和解释了“外行”读者的精神分析，同时保留了适合专业读者的智力重量和复杂性。但这个问题仍然经常出现在专业网站上:“对于想要了解心理治疗如何运作的人来说，有什么好书值得推荐呢?”在《情感传承》一书中，加利特·阿特拉斯博士写了一本临床故事集，将精神分析工作的复杂性、深度和美丽带入生活。她的写作(以及有声读物版的演讲)用一种声音传达了治疗工作中常常令人难以置信的尖锐，尤其是在治疗代际创伤的工作中。在她讲述的每一个临床故事中，阿特拉斯传达了作为治疗师和病人，我们如何从陌生人变成(不对称的，有界限的)亲密者(阿隆，1996)，我们如何从默默无闻开始，如何进入光明，我们和我们的病人如何学会忍受无法忍受的，了解不可知的，最终继续活得更完整，更充实。她在这本专门针对普通读者的书中做到了这一点，但这本书可以也应该成为每一级经验的心理健康专业人员的指南和灵感。阿特拉斯将临床故事从诊所提升到文学艺术领域的能力可以在她的专业写作中观察到(阿特拉斯，2015;阿特拉斯和

Have you been wishing for a volume that provides a detailed overview of Relational psychoanalysis and clearly and concisely explains all the important aspects of it? Have you wondered where you might easily locate the theories and concepts that comprise Relational psychoanalysis, and the major Relational authors and theorists? I certainly have! Well, wish and wonder no longer. That book has been written by Steven Kuchuck. Groundbreaking, this eminently useful volume is not only a step-by-step guide to Relational psychoanalysis; it also tells the story of the development of contemporary psychoanalysis. The most significant talent displayed in the pages of this book is in the succinctness and clarity of writing. In this neat, compact package, Kuchuck achieves the feat of writing with enough simplicity for those who are new to Relational psychoanalysis to understand, and with enough complexity for those who are already well-versed in the theory to be stimulated and challenged. It is a book that appeals to a wide cross-section of psychoanalysts. Kuchuck is adept at taking a complex piece of theory and simplifying it enough so that it can be easily taken in and digested, while leaving just enough to chew on, should one

Once in a New York City taxi, I witnessed a driver speak a Slavic language on his cell phone, glance at the New York Post on his seat, and respond to me in English about my complaint that he was speeding. I found his ability to negotiate these different states of being while still doing his job effectively to be amazing. Such multiple states were studied and professionally popularized by the late Philip Bromberg, psychoanalyst and scholar; I find his theory applicable especially in these day-to-day experiences. It’s a talent to be able to experience multiple self-states simultaneously without significant disturbance to one’s functioning. In “On Being Human,” Beth Feldman appears gifted enough to enable her to take care of her patient, stay attuned to her phone for news about her hospitalized father, and also keep track of her failing mother. Most importantly, during these turbulent situations, she is able to keep herself from tipping over. Feldman describes the painful memories her patient expresses and creatively associates to her own childhood. In toggling between her own experience and her patient’s, she demonstrates the optimal use of an analyst’s ability to shift between self-states in order to enrich the patient’s experience both in the transference and in her own external world outside the office. The way Feldman moves back and forth in time, sliding between her own past, her patient’s current troubles, and her care for her father, is remarkable in that it truly enriches her psychoanalytic treatment of Lydia.

The digital age has normalized amateur sleuthing. Despite the fact that searching online for information about patients clashes with the analytic ideal, many of us google our patients. Dynamically speaking, what lies behind these searches? Certainly, the act of searching represents a premature foreclosure of imagination; it inevitably changes the relational matrix. It often conceals an unconscious communication that the analyst has not been able to acknowledge or examine. Internet searches can be individually or dyadically informed; in both instances, they disrupt the intimacy of the two-person relationship and our own self-experience as analysts. Even more troubling, they leave us holding secrets that breach an ethical line. This essay moves beyond the problem of boundary violations and explores how obtaining information about the other through online searches informs, enriches, and disrupts the co-created therapeutic experience.

This article focuses on three positions, from malignant to benign, located on the respective axes of object and subject in the context of forgiveness. A helpful graph is provided. The most malignant position on the axis of the object is the position of evil or indifference toward evil, paralleled, on the axis of the subject, by a position of vengefulness. The second position on the axis of the object is the position of guilt/atonement, which is paralleled, on the axis of the subject, by the position of amnesty. The third position on the axis of the object is the position of regret, which has its parallel on the subject axis in the position of forgiveness. Though presented as three clearly demarcated positions, they are present, with fluctuating dominance, in any encounter, whether concrete or imagined, between subject and object. These three positions are illustrated by means of a close reading of three memoirs.

When I was first asked to write a review essay based on Nancy McWilliams’ book on psychoanalytic supervision (2021) I was momentarily surprised. Apart from her published work on psychodiagnosis and treatment (1994, 1999, 2004, 2011, and 2017 (with Lingiardi)), Nancy McWilliams is so well known as a master teacher and supervisor that I had imagined that such a book had long ago been published. Now it has been. And it is very much what those who know the work of Nancy McWilliams have come to expect. It is plainspoken, clearly discussed, comprehensive, and written in a tone that is warm, friendly, and absolutely respectful of the intelligence of the reader. McWilliams wants to convey her understanding, what she has learned, her point of view. There is no playing with obscurity or arcane language, as can too often be found in psychoanalytic writing. Indeed, I think it is the very respect for readers’ intelligence that enables McWilliams to say things very personally. This is her book, her voice, and she expects that readers will be able to think for themselves. It is written from McWilliams’ vast, direct experience as a teacher and supervisor. She says from the outset that she is a believer in the usefulness of received wisdom, and she shares it. While comprehensive in scope—just about every aspect of supervision is brought up and addressed in some way here—McWilliams makes no pretense that this is a neutral, “textbook” survey of issues and points of view. In this book you get

Many demographic problems require models for partnership formation. We consider a model for matchings within a bipartite population where individuals have utility for people based on observed and unobserved characteristics. It represents both the availability of potential partners of different types and the preferences of individuals for such people. We develop an estimator for the preference parameters based on sample survey data on partnerships and population composition. We conduct simulation studies based on the Survey of Income and Program Participation showing that the estimator recovers preference parameters that are invariant under different population availabilities and has the correct confidence coverage.
